This fantastic rainbow at a shade over 8lbs brought a smile to the face of Stan Paterson from Dumbarton out flyfishing in the Drummond Estate boats with the St. Mungo Angling Club on the 7th June 2014.Conditions were quite difficult on the day with a strong easterly wind blowing but despite this the huge fish took a fancy to a Claret Dabbler Stan had on his cast and it was a good twenty five minutes before he could get his net out.Unfortunately for Stan only the first two fish of the day count towards the weigh in so the rainbow didn't count.In total the St. Mungo Angling Club weighed in 21 browns for 19lbs 1oz and a further 20 browns were released not bad considering that strong east wind.
